Today on "Tea With Twiggy," I'm thrilled to be joined by the wonderfully talented Paul Feig. Known for his flair in both fashion and film, Paul's journey from Michigan to Hollywood is as inspiring as it is entertaining. From Humble Beginnings to Hollywood's Limelight Paul's story starts in Michigan, far from the glitz of Hollywood. Growing up in an era of cultural shifts, he soaked in stories that later wove into his films. His move to California, starting as a Universal Studios tour guide and then attending USC Film School, was a leap into the world of movie magic. But it wasn't all red carpets; Paul's early days in stand-up comedy at 15 were filled with laughter and learning curves. A Household of Humour Paul didn't grow up in a showbiz family, but humour was always part of his life. His dad's storytelling and jokes laid the groundwork for Paul's love of both sophisticated and simple comedy. Influenced by comedic greats like Steve Martin and George Carlin, Paul developed a keen sense for what tickles the funny bone. Behind the Camera Paul's acting roles led to some disappointments, but they paved the way for his directorial debut. Saving up from acting gigs, he created “Freaks and Geeks”—a show that, despite its initial struggle, became a cult classic and a turning point in teen TV narratives. Working with Judd Apatow, Paul transitioned to directing, where he could enhance performances while drawing empathetically on his acting experience. Creating Comedic Masterpieces Paul's stories behind hits like “Bridesmaids” showcase not just his directorial skills but the power of collaboration. The improvisational brilliance of Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo is just one example of the magic that happens on his sets. His knack for spotting talent is evident in actors like Melissa McCarthy and Rose Byrne, who shine in his films. Adapting and Evolving We also chat about adapting to changes in the film industry, especially during the pandemic. Paul shares insights into the editing process, likening it to solving a jigsaw puzzle, and discusses the unpredictable nature of test screenings. Despite controversies like those around “Ghostbusters: Answer the Call,” Paul emphasises the collaborative nature of filmmaking. Paul's upcoming projects, including action comedies with stars like John Cena and Awkwafina, promise more creative brilliance. So grab a cuppa, and let's dive into the world of Paul Feig!

She lived in Gallowgate for a while before moving to Garfield Street, Dennistoun. At the age of 12 or 13, she and her manager approached a band called the Bellrocks seeking stage experience as a singer. She appeared with them every Saturday night: Alex Thomson, the group's bass player, has reported that even then her voice was remarkable.  In 1964, under the wing of Marion Massey, she was signed to Decca Records. When she was only fifteen, her version of the Isley Brothers' "Shout", credited to 'Lulu & the Luvvers' and delivered in a raucous but mature voice, peaked at no. 7 on the UK charts. Massey guided her career for more than 25 years, for most of which time they were partners in business, and Massey's husband Mark produced some of Lulu's recordings. After the success of "Shout", Lulu's next charting single was "Leave A Little Love" in 1965, which returned her to the UK Top Ten. Her next record, "Try to Understand", made the Top 40. Later that year she guested on the cover version of the Dan Hartman song "Relight My Fire", with boy band Take That. The single reached no. 1 on the UK Singles Chart and Lulu appeared as Take That's supporting act on their 1994 tour. At this time she also appeared as an unhappy public relations client of Edina Monsoon in two episodes of the BBC television programme Absolutely Fabulous and teamed with French and Saunders many times, including their send up of the Spice Girls (the Sugar Lumps) for Comic Relief in 1997, when she took the role of "Baby Spice", mimicking Emma Bunton.

Myleene was born in Norfolk in 1978 to an English-Austrain father and a Filipina mother. She began playing the piano and her grandfather's violin at age of four. She studied voice at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama where she also added Harp to her repertoire.

She says: "I was incredibly fortunate. I got the chance to work with some of the most remarkable artists on a daily basis and learn from them. The diversity of the music I encountered each day is every musician's dream." Myleene toured with the likes of K.D.Lang, Robbie Williams, Cliff Richard and Michael Crawford to name but a few. HerWest End debut followed rapidly afterwards as she joined the cast of “Miss Saigon”. "I enjoyed being part of an ensemble. Miss Saigon is such an epic show and I had so much fun. It’s such an emotional and rewarding show to be a part of" Myleene first shot to fame in the 2001 ITV1 series Popstars the original reality TV music show whose premise was to create a UK pop band. From thousands of singing hopefuls, Myleene was chosen to become one of five members of thecontroversial yet incredibly successful pop band, Hear'Say. Hear’Say’s first single “Pure and Simple” entered the charts at No.1, going on to sell over 1 million copies. This was followedby their No.1 album “Popstars”, and another No.1 single “The Way To Your Love”. However, despite a string of hit singles, a nationwide sell out tour,, and gigs with legends like Stevie Wonder and Celine Dion, the band split in late 2002 leaving Myleene to pursue a solo career. Myleene hosts her show every weekend on Classic FM and every Saturday afternoon on Smooth Radio. Myleene has been a very popular TV host on Popstar to Operstar and The Classical Brits.

Welcome to Tea with Twiggy! In this episode Twiggy has virtual tea with Joanna Lumley! Born in Kashmir, India, (her father was a major in the Gurkha Rifles), Joanna’s family returned to the UK after Indian independence. Joanna came to England as a young girl to complete her schooling at St Mary’s School in Sussex. An aspiring actress, she first came to fame as a model in London's swinging 1960s, where she was photographed by the greats, including the late Patrick Lichfield. She was designer Jean Muir's muse and became one of the top ten most-booked models of the 1960s. Her first TV appearance was in a bread advert, followed closely by her ‘big break’ on Coronation Street – she turned down Ken Barlow’s marriage proposal! It was The Avengers that brought Joanna (and her ‘Purdey bob’ hairdo) to the forefront of popular culture. But Joanna’s reinvention as a comic actress in her role as champagne-loving, chain-smoking Patsy in Absolutely Fabulous, from 1992-2005, cemented her role as one of the UK's best loved and most respected actresses. The show was formed into a hit film in 2016, featuring countless celebrity cameos. In 2008 Joanna became the public face of a campaign to provide Gurkha veterans with the right to settle in Britain. She is also a vegetarian and an active crusader for animal rights. Joanna has been a supporter of Survival International and the cause of indigenous rights, a patron of Tree Aid and a patron of the Pastoral and Environmental Network in the Horn of Africa. Other charities supported include Mind, ActionAid and SANE. She has won three BAFTA awards and a British Comedy Award.
